Although you've all worked very hard over the last three years，none of you did it （5）　　．I hope you'll remember the important （6）　　 in your lives who helped and supported you．Please consider what they've done for you．Never （7）　　 to be thankful to the people around you．

Lastly，the end of junior high school is the beginning of a new（8）　　．You will have many difficult tasks（9）　　 you．You'll make mistakes along the way，but the key is to （10）　　 your mistakes and never give up．But along with difficulties，there will also be many（11）　　 things waiting for you．Learn the new things，and you'll have the ability to make your own choices．Choose （12）　　and be responsible for your decisions and actions．（13）　　you have to go your separate ways now，I hope that you'll come back to visit our school in a few years' time．As you （14）　　 on your new journey，you shouldn't forget where you came form．The future is （15）　　．
